MIPS: BMIPS: Add PRId for BMIPS5200 (Whirlwind)

2014-11-24T06:45:12+00:00

This is a dual core (quad thread) BMIPS5000.  It needs a little extra
code to boot the second core (CPU2/CPU3), but for now we can treat it the
same as a single core BMIPS5000.

MIPS: Ensure Config5.UFE is clear on boot

2014-11-24T06:45:07+00:00

As is done for UFR, ensure that userland cannot directly manipulate the
mode by clearing the UFE bit during boot.

MIPS: detect presence of the FRE & UFR bits

2014-11-24T06:45:06+00:00

Detect the presence of the Config5 FRE & UFE bits, as indicated by the
FREP bit in FPIR. Record this as a CPU option bit, and provide a
cpu_has_fre macro to ease checking of that option bit.

MIPS: cpu: Add 'noftlb' kernel command line option to disable the FTLB

2014-11-24T06:44:51+00:00

Add new 'noftlb' kernel command line option to disable the FTLB.
Since the kernel command line is not available when probing and
enabling the CPU features in cpu_probe(), we let the kernel configure
the FTLB during the config4 decode operation and we disable the FTLB later
on, once the command line has become available to us. This should have
no negative effects since FTLB isn't used so early in the boot process.
FTLB increases the effective TLB size leading to less TLB misses. However,
sometimes it's useful to be able to disable it when debugging memory related
core features or other hardware components.

MIPS: cpu-probe: Set the FTLB probability bit on supported cores

2014-11-24T06:44:05+00:00

Make use of the Config6/FLTBP bit to set the probability of a TLBWR
instruction to hit the FTLB or the VTLB. A value of 0 (which may be
the default value on certain cores, such as proAptiv or P5600)
means that a TLBWR instruction will never hit the VTLB which
leads to performance limitations since it effectively decreases
the number of available TLB slots.

MIPS: Loongson: Set Loongson-3's ISA level to MIPS64R1

2014-11-19T17:22:07+00:00

In CPU manual Loongson-3 is MIPS64R2 compatible, but during tests we
found that its EI/DI instructions have problems. So we just set the ISA
level to MIPS64R1.

MIPS: cpu-probe: Set the write-combine CCA value on per core basis

2014-09-22T11:35:53+00:00

Different cores use different CCA values to achieve write-combine
memory writes. For cores that do not support write-combine we
set the default value to CCA:2 (uncached, non-coherent) which is the
default value as set by the kernel.
